About Me

I love my big ol' Alaskan Malamute, Glacier! I am happyily married to my bestfriend,Jim! I love and cherish my family! My life is blessed! I live in sunny Califonia! Love that I live so close to the ocean and mountains and lakes, et

I hope no one thinks ill of me for posting so much on me! But I was just taking ques from all the examples people left or talked about! Thanks for taking a peek!

I have very much enjoyed all the swaps...except those that I have been flaked on. One thing you will notice is that I am wonderful swapper I tend to spoil my partner! I love the new rules here now. Hopefully I will have some really fun swaps!

I really love handmade items. And have really expanded my swaps. I have some new ones I can't wait to dive into! Happy Swapping!

Highly allergic to cigarette smoke! Please be careful if you are a smoker put things in ziplock bags,to keep smoke smell out. Nothing worst than throwing out items because they are saturated with smoke smell. Thanks in advance!

Also as a side note, I do REswap things I can't use, or don't need. And try to REcycle packaging when I can.

Private swaps!

Anyone wanting to do a private swap with me...PLEASE pm me! I would love to do more private swaps with fantastic swappers (artists). I put a lot time and effort into my swaps and would very much like to meet some swappers who do the same!

Scents that I like/dislike:

I am allergic to anything scented with vanilla...makes me very sick/headaches and nausea! But funny thing I can eat anything made with REAL vanilla bean!

Scents that I just love for candles: Any type of baked goods! Some floral. Love clean scents (linen,cotton,etc) But not vanilla! Or pine!

Altered Items & Handmade

Favorite Crafts

I love doing scrapbooking and photograpy. But I have done all types of crafts. I will give it a try and then master it and then move on. Weird like that but there are so many different things I want to try. That I don't want to get stuck with doing one craft. But scrapbooking is my true love!

Everyone seems to have a wish list, I borrowed lots of ideas from people around here on swapbot, it seemed like a wonderful idea to give people lots of ideas to play with!

Anything with Crowns/Tiaras (more real looking than play tiaras) on it! ANYTHING!

Decorated ATC's, love all media!

Matchboxes(themed).

Ribbons, all kinds and colors.

Love lavender hearts/sachets, any size or shape, as long as I can hang them, they are yummy.

Buttons (vintage or new) especially cute themed buttons or sparkly rhinestone ones.

Organic body products, especially handmade, soaps, creams etc.

Vintage brooches, pendants and trinkets,buttons/badges or handmade of the same, I have started a great collection, now what to do with these lovely pieces.

Aprons, vintage, handmade or new, I have started to try my hand at this.

Anything depicting English Robins/Robins or any cute chubby birds, thought this one cute idea..due to my name - Robyn.

Little mirrors or compacts, hand mirrors, silk butterflies/birds/flowers. Little paintings/framed photos, anything weathered, adds just the vintage flair in any room!

Handmade Holiday decor, I love doing Chirstmas in July.

Any interesting vintage books, especially about crafts, fashion, cookery, house keeping, love those 50's housewife books, better with pics inside, I have received some great ones from people!

Art in general.

Gardening gloves(large size), any pretty design, who wouldn't.

I love hand thrown pottery/ceramics, especially with pale blue/aqua/green/purple/pink glazes.

Candles, especially handmade, I am a total candle freak.

Vintage Greetings cards, I love to use these in my altered projects.

Any thing with a pretty design, florals, polka dots or cupcakes.

Linens.

Tea & coffee(decaf), and chocolate!

Vintage hats, especially berets or cloche style, also a cute idea.

Dog collars (I have a Alaskan Malamute so XL collars fit him). (I know alot of us love the same things, so I borrowed some ideas from fellow swappers, to help me a quick list together.)
